This weeks theme was gravity. To me nothing screams gravity more than something falling towards the earth. An alternative definition could have been and extremely grave situation. So In my mind skydiving combines both definitions, a freefall towards the earth and a potentially grave situation should that parachute not open. My Submission “FreeFall” Bennett, D….
So why don’t I just print from the internet? Well, for one it’s stealing other peoples work, but you are also only getting a cheap copy. Images on the internet are usually posted at 72dpi and 1000 pixels wide as curent internet and maojority of monitors can’t handle more. If you’re lucky it’s a 90-100…
I decided to revisit the Muskrat picture as many people took an interest in it, and really liked the photo. I appreciate the comments a great deal, and welcome feedback. This post is a bit of behind the scenes of this particular image. It shows some of the process in order to get a good…
BOOOOOOOM is a blog about art. More specifically, an art blog based in Vancouver, Canada. I wasn’t looking for their site or searching a specific related topic, they just showed up in a recommended feed. So, why am I sharing this with you?

This weekend brought a trip to Elk Island, National Park. If you like tranquility, nature, or just want to get away from the city for a bit, I recommend a visit. In the slideshow above you can see the sky change as the sun set. Not your typical Alberta sunset. Although intended as a scouting…
DigitalRev TV (2014) Kai and Lok are invited to the Canon 7DII Launch. Hands on preview of this Pro-sumer level camera. Not an indepth or professional review by any means, but a preview in true Digital Rev TV fashion. I am looking forward to the proper hands on review. Some adult humour and language. DigitalRev…

Although the internet evolves quickly this article is still relevant today The theory presented is if you have 1000 true fans who are willing to pay you $100 a year, for your work or…
Another idea based theme. Up Close. Strictly speaking this should probably be a macro photograph, but since it’s fall and most flowers are dead… I chose a less strict interpretation. I have already printed, matted and mounted this first image for submission, however I took a photo the next day with a different lens. Post some…
Bennett, D. (2014). “Dusty Rural Road”. [image]. Above: I took the direct route via unimproved road and drove into a dust filled sunset… less than ideal driving, but great for a photograph. Once the road cleared a bit more I proceeded to the intended destination, a friendly farmers field. It was there we got some great…
